WVclimo Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 I know we all wanted snow, but I think it is good to take a larger look at this storm and recognize how impressive it was. The big precip record, a beautiful radar, winds picking up from almost nothing to a 40mph gust at DCA. Some cool stuff. As said by others, a very good post. Just puddles here, with no accumulation. But considering last year at this time we were bone dry while we watched clippers dive into W. NC, at least we had a fun storm this time around.

usedtobe Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Yep Wes - I am so unlucky - I could be 22 degrees and I'd have rain You'll get some snow before the end of the season, probably not as much as you'd like but we'll see accumulating snow (famous last words).

psuhoffman Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Very heavy band moved in and temp dropped to 33 snow now sticking, perhaps 1/2" but a LONG way to go for NWS to verify. Still it looks nice out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jebman Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 In late October we ended as some wet snow Dec 7....... 3-4 inches of rain ended as rain in low to mid 30s conds with STRONG CAA This is a perfectly excellent way to start a memorable winter /sarcasm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WVclimo Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Fair to say that Bastardi's son busted? So did Pop. What do we make of the models that, like every year, sucker us in with progged accumulations on Days 4, 3, and 2 prior to the storm and even the day of keep spitting out accumulations ? Weenie algorithms ? Good to be reminded early in the season to not get invested outside of 36 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In DC it's good to look at the track of the storm, by last night it said no as the 850 low track stunk, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
